Malted Milkshake

Yes I’m STILL trying to get rid of the Easter candy. However I knew what I was going to do with these Robin Eggs maltballs way before Easter. When I saw this idea over at Pass the Sushi I knew it was going to make an appearance in my kitchen. I hate maltballs. There I said it. Even as a child they were the last thing to be eaten out of my Easter basket. Much like Peeps there is something iconic about them that they simply must be put into the Easter candy mix. As punishment for compelling me to buy them I pulverized them. Surprisingly I ended up liking the result.

Blend it up and top with whipped cream. The result was a tasty milkshake. The good thing about food blogging is that you are motivated to try new things. The bad thing about food blogging is that you have to confess all that you have been making in your kitchen. I made this one afternoon while my husband was at work. Unlike me he DOES like maltballs. I did save some pulverized maltballs for him. Let’s see if he actually reads through all of my blog rambling and requests a milkshake. Code word: Montana. {As in if he tells me, “I would like a malted milkshake all to myself please. Montana.” Then I will whip him up one of his very own.} Four Year Old Foodie and I shared and it was gone in about 2 minutes. Enjoy!

Hi Katrina! Thanks for sharing a great idea (and thanks to Pass the Sushi, too!). This looks yummy and such a great treat. I love your picture too. The background and everything fits so well with this milkshake!

I’m not quite sure what malt balls are. I’m guessing they are like malteasers which I love. Will substitute them in the blender and see what happens. Haven’t had a milkshake in years so thanks for the nostaligic reminder.

When I first read the post, I read meatballs and I thought- ugh, that’s a meatball milkshake. Quickly realised its maltballs! Haven’t tried them but if they’re anythign liek maltesers im sure id like them!
